Vintage Acoustic Guitar

SIMPLY PUT .. THIS IS ONE OF THE NICEEST EXAMPLES OF A POST-WAR BRAZILIAN MARTIN IN EXISTENCE. .. IT IS A SERIOUS INVESTMENT GRADE INSTRUMENT.
(You can look around the internet and see decent examples .. however you will be hard pressed to find anything so complete and well kept)

I WAS LUCKY ENOUGH TO BUY THIS BEAUTY FROM DAVID CARRADINE A FEW YEARS BACK.
IT WAS A MUCH ENJOYED FAMILY GUITAR THAT SHOWS SIGNS OF BEING BABIED AND TREASURED AND NOT MUCH ELSE.
IT HAD ALREADY HAD A PERFECT NECK RESET BY MASTER LUTHIER ANDY POWERS ..
THAT'S IT ..
IT HAS THE TALL THIN BRACES UNIQUE TO 1946 THROUGH 1949 28 GUITARS. HANK OWNED ONE.
THIS HAS A FULL NECK 1 11/16THs" AT THE NUT. AND100% ORIGINAL FROM TUNERS TO PINS.
IT IS CLEAN AND GORGEOUS AND PLAYS AND SOUNDS AS GOOD AS ANYTHING ON THE PLANET.

DAVID OWNED AND USED THIS GUITAR FOR ALMOST THIRTY YEARS AND IT WAS ALSO USED FOR RECORDINGS BY HIS BROTHER BOBBY.
I HAVE APPROPRIATE SIGNED PROVENANCE FROM BOBBY DOCUMENTING THIS GUITAR AND ITS HISTORY (DAVID BOUGHT IT FROM A WELL-KNOWN COLLECTOR) THAT WILL BE ACCOMPANYING THE GUITAR. .. ALSO A WONDERFUL SIGNED PHOTO FROM DAVID'S ROLE IN 'BOUND FOR GLORY' AS WOODY GUTHRIE.

THIS ONE COULD EASILY BE ON DISPLAY AT ANY MUSEUM, OR 'HARD ROCK'  TYPE VENUE BUT IT IS A JOY TO PLAY..

THE ORIGINAL GREEN-LINED CASE IS IN EXCELLENT CONDITION.
